To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ERNST BROSEMANN, of the city, county, and State ofNew York, have invented a new and useful article of manufacture inTrimming for Wearing Apparel; and I do hereby declare the following tobe a full and exact description thereof, which will enable othersskilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to theaccompanyin g drawings, forming a part of the same, in which similarletters of reference indicate like parts.

The object of my invention is to produce an improved article of trimmingfor wearing apparel; and consists in placing a strip of tinsel or a cordbetween the folds of cloth, lawn, tarlatan, or other suitable material,which being crimped, tucked, or fluted, as suits the taste of thedesigner, and subjected to pressure, produces a pleasing and desirabletrimmin g heretofore unknown.

Figs. 5 and 6show the modification, consisting of the thread A of silk floss in anangular or corrugated form, to be placed between the folds of clothinstead of tinsel, which is in like manner subjected to pressure, andproduces the article shown.
